  i received this email tonight from a dear, dear friend who i believed had died.

  she was in very bad shape when i last spoke with her over a year ago.. "i'll make this short in case it is not functioning.

  besides i'm not sure whether it is alright for you to read it or not.

  Going through chemotherapy provides me with a different point of view. The elders with good intentions said "blood fragments are your choice (a very old and socially retarded elder who disowned his own kids, not spoken with them for twenty years bluntly said "blood-fragments are against Jehovah's law, it's a sin and no different from a total blood transfusion") with a few outspoken ones providing additional confusion at a very troubling time.

  To see how fragmented each Kingdom Hall is, "one say's you can and one say's you can' and others say "Dont Ask, Don't Tell" I feel pity for this sister, until you are placed with a life and death decession on Blood, it's best to keep the elders out of this!

  BOE Letter: Rules to deal with rules

  by pixel in

  as everybody jere knows, there is no requirement for a christian to "count and report" their time.

  that's totally made-up by the wt/fds/gb, so, they have to make rules to deal with their own rules.... .

  re: showing consideration for those involved in theocratic projects .

  The Chicken Elder complained about Ministerial Servants helping different congregations grow (Arabic, Greek, and Armenian) in Fresno, California. Finally the M.S.s sent a letter to the Watchtower Society begging for help, why did the District Overseer and Circuit Overseer say "It's a precious oppertunity for the young men and women to serve in small "start-up" congregations with no help?" while our local elders were telling the MSs and Pioneers "you better pick a congregation Private, our we will delete you!'

  The WTS was thrilled the Armenian-Greek speaking MSs were attending double meetings and ripped "chicken and emu elders" into assholes. The Branch in the United States personally called each of the trouble making elders to ask what is their basis for attacking the young motivated MSs and sisters doing a fine work. The elders brought in the MSs and sisters and said "Sorry, there must be a misunderstanding because we never said anything you wrote." I was there when they lied to those brothers and sisters, the elders and almost all the body lied to keep the heat off their ass. That's why there is a need for these letters and rules because of arrogant men and women who think they know better than the Faithful Slave.

  31 things each and every Jehovah's Witness NEEDS TO KNOW right now!!

  things for jehovah's witnesses to think hard about.. .

  1.you cannot change what you refuse to confront.. look at how you are feeling most of the time.

  that sense of going nowhere and feeling down is not because you aren't spritual enough.

  Terry, are these your own insights into the religion or are they sayings you have come across reading and studying? Impressive list that fall to close to home for me, each point is duly considered.

  "wasblind" the Time Slip work's wonders with publishers battling depression, the chronic ill, the elderly who are drowned out with the Message our networth is based off the forward P.H. ratio of the Time Card. I stopped asking why because it's a powerful tool to make the elderly, mental and physically infirm feel like worthless pieces of shit. Is this by accident or is this intentional?

  I GET TO STUDY WITH RESURRECTED PIRATES, YOU DON'T!

  by AuntConnie in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  some saw the picture of the pirate in the wt and laughed...some may have even thought it was inappropriate (all that raping and pillaging!).

  but consider, a pirate is the perfect example of a goal for our young ones to motivate them to look to the paradise and potential studies.

  pirates don't require higher education...no need for our children to idolize astronauts or politicians.

But consider, a pirate is the perfect example of a goal for our young ones to motivate them to look to the paradise and potential studies. Why? Pirates don't require higher education...no need for our children to idolize astronauts or politicians. In fact, there are more similarities, pirates were some of the first homeschooled students! A few differences in the curriculum, of course, but very much what our kids need now. "Swabbing the decks" practice for a pirate is excellent for all our future janitors and window cleaners. Of course, our kids need to study cursive rather than cursing, but it's good to know both for those difficult days post 2:pm in service. Plus, it's so hard for us to remember the difference between port and starboard, but a good homeschooled pirate can easily show us port to Starbucks! And when we get too tired to think of something new to say, our trusty parrot can parrot back our presentation to us...

  Chowchilla Women's Correctional Facility has plenty of inmates with Trinitarian backgrounds, how many Catholics, Fundamentalists and Babylonian religious backgrounds would you guess the killers were exposed to? Saying your more a a Christian because of your belief in a impossibliy undefinable Trinity make's absolutely no sense to any thinking person. Athanasia was no more a Trinitarian than Arius was, I make more sacrifices and spend more time sharing the Bible message than you, that make's me more godly!

  I worked in the ministry in this facility, saying's your godly or Christian is not true, "a good person can't produce bad works!"

  One small tid bit of advice, the majority of people who claim to have degrees online don't, especially when they claim to have a Master's Degree. Cagefighter don't be so naive, it's a gimmick to attribute authority to their thread and seek out the gullible.

  The therapist is still working on this thesis and needs another extension (Eighteen Extensions the head of the faculty has given him or her), most Master's will not brag about their college and those who brag usually might have a A.A or A.S at the most. I did my good deed and now I am done with this person, think hard please, it's hard to get someone with a M or phd to say so, their afraid of people wanting their advice. back to normal, I need to take some medication, it's wearing off now.

  government considered a tax on savings.

  banks have been shut, atms running out of cash, banks won't open again until tuesday, maybe.

  lots of governments around the world are in financial difficulties, including the u.s. and the u.s. government isn't facing facts and will continue spending and spending until absolutely forced to deal with the deficit.. .

  The Watchtower has taught us to keep a nice supply of food and water and medicine, stop worrying about Cyprus and do something about it by getting some dried food, fuel and a "sun stove and sunoven" the Organization is helping us get read for "Doomsday" by giving the best wisdom.

  Cyprus is used by good rich people to hide their income, protecting the rich are the key to safeguarding everyone's future.

  Is this true? Do the elders really do it like this?

  i put this week's wt paragraph about disfellowshipping on my fb page and said how poor robert's family didn't even check to see whether he was dead or alive in 16 years and a friend of mine of the 'conscious class' commented about how unchristian she felt disfellowshipping to this degree is, and i agreed.. another friend, and uber-jw who has a host of illnesses and yet pioneers, who everytime she and her husband go to another congregation, if he's not appointed within three years they move to another and try for an appointment there - he used to be an elder and no one is willing to promote him again- replied to my thread.

  now keep in mind she has a dfd son and she doesn't even know whether he is dead or alive, because she follows the wt to the tee.

  she replied, among other things,with this:.

  I SWEAR TO JEHOVAH, I HAVE NOT TALKED TO MY MOTHER IN SIX YEARS AND SHE IS NOT DISFELLOWSHIPED. WHEN MY DAD HAD A HEART ATTACK TWO YEARS AGO, I WATCHED THE AMBULANCE LOAD UP MY DAD AND DID NOT EVEN WAVE "GOOD BYE!"

  These are the type of human beings we are, we come to your door but don't tell you how we will teach you to hate your fleshly family and turn a good heart into a dark one filled with hate.

  Perfect example of a worldy education taking up someone's valuable time for decades, poor person spent the last twenty five years in college and has not finished his degree. You need to help yourself, your not getting any younger and by the time you get your degree, we could be in the New Order. I hope he has liability insurance if he is going to say he has a M.A. and give out advice, never know when you might help the wrong person and get sued.

  Suspected Jehovah's Witnesses attacked by pitbull in the preaching work

  i guess this sort of thing is bound to happen, even though the society implies that angels are out there protecting jehovah's witnesses from harm.. interestingly, it wasn't an angel who came to the rescue, but a "worldly" bystander with his gun.. .

  I wish we all could get permits for carry-conceal in case the angels (Giant men who stood behind the sister who talked to the serial killers) are busy helping other witnesses in more trying situations (finding a coffeeshop, breathing on empty cars running on fumes, getting me out of "Jury Duty" and other horrible situations American Witnesses encounter).
